Boat towers having a lower portion fixed to a boat, an upper portion pivotally coupled to the lower portion, and a hinge configured to couple the upper portion to the lower portion are disclosed. The hinge may include a stationary portion coupled to the lower portion of the tower; a moving portion coupled to the lower portion at a hinge axis; an assisting device extending from a position fixed on the stationary portion to an interface on the moving portion; a catch coupled to the moving portion; and a latch coupled to the stationary portion configured to interface with the catch thereby locking the hinge in a closed position. The latch may be configured to move to a locked position by the moving portion moving into the closed position and the weight of the upper portion of the tower provides sufficient force to engage and lock the latch.
